Problem is: I just *hate* having to type a password everytime I start
Evolution, the more so since Evolution is pretty much forced on users
anyway. Please, please, give your users the *choice* of using a keyring
or not -- isn't that what Linux has always been about?

I have removed Evolution (and the various pop-accounts) from the keyring
in the gnome-keyring-manager, but *still* these keyring requests keep
coming up. Now, for the pop-accounts I was able to give "always"
permission, but this is no option for Evolution in the keyring-manager.

Signed: Linux-user since 1992 (Slackware, then Debian), currently
hesitating whether Ubuntu Edgy or Gentoo (64-bit) will be my main
production OS...
